Under the Veil of Night
In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

Destruction of the Building
Outside the Gate
Neo and Mike had finally reached the gate. They were elated when they saw that there were only a few monsters left from this place. Right now, all they wanted was to have a good rest after the long fight.
"Mike, Neo!" Dean hurriedly called the medical team to check up on these two. Seeing the wounds on their body, he felt that it was truly a miracle that they were still alive. The medical quickly treated Neo's feet and Mike's arm. From the way it looked like, they wouldn't be able to recover soon enough.
"This is going to be hurt," Patrick frowned when he noticed the condition of Mike's fist.
Mike smiled wryly. "I'll recover soon enough to take over my work again, Elder Patrick."
"You better be," Patrick nodded his head slightly.
